An Epidemiologist studies the patterns, causes, and effects of diseases and health conditions in populations. You might work in public health departments, research institutions, or healthcare organisations. Epidemiologists focus on designing and conducting studies, analysing data, and developing strategies to prevent and control diseases. You’ll interpret data to identify health trends and inform public health policies.
Epidemiologists play a vital role in improving community health and safety. You’ll need strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate complex information clearly. You’ll collaborate with healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers to ensure that findings are effectively utilised to address health issues and improve population health outcomes.
